What is Life? At the age of 12, I experienced my first death. My grandmother died whom I loved so much. That day at her funeral while I stood at the back of the church, trying to process and understand what was happening. I asked myself the following two (2) questions, "What is life" and "Why are we here" I am not sure if there is anyone else in the world that have had that experience, but truly; **What is life and why are we here?** **Are we living so that we can make money to cover our expenses?** **Are we living so that we can debate which religion is the right one?** **Are we living so that we can get married and have children?** **Are we living so that we can be happy?** **Are we living so that our lives impact others?** **Whether we believe in;** **"God the Creator"** **"Jesus the Saviour"** **"Evolution"** The question still remains the same, "**What is Life, and why are we here?**
